Entries open for 2018 National League Trust U11s Cup

Chester FC Community Trust is inviting primary schools to enter the 2018 National League Trust Under 11s Cup, which gives youngsters a once in a lifetime opportunity to play at Wembley.

The annual competition sees National League clubs host local tournaments with the winning schools progressing to regional finals and competing for a place in the overall final at the national stadium.

Last year St Werburgh’s & St Columba’s Catholic Primary School from Hoole embarked on an incredible run, winning the Chester FC event and the north west and northern finals before being crowned national champions at Wembley.

This year’s event takes place on Wednesday 14th November at Goals Soccer Centre between 1pm and 4pm (registration at 12.30pm).

The six-a-side tournament is free to enter and features separate competitions for boys and girls. It is open to primary schools and each squad should contain a minimum of eight players who are in Year 6 or below.

The winners of the boys and girls competitions will go through to regional and northern tournaments for the chance to contest the final at Wembley on Saturday 11th May 2019.
